NICU Reunion

The girls (Julia, Katie, Carissa, and Amy)

Today was the 10th annual NICU reunion. It is a time for all of our graduates to get together so we can see how they've grown and changed. I love seeing all the parents again and how the babies have grown into toddlers. Many of the nurses who have been working longer than I get to see kids in college or who are even married which will be so wonderful. Many of the families I still try to keep in touch with, but there are always some surprise faces I've forgotten. I tried to take some pictures, but this is clearly not everyone who I got to see! Enjoy!!

Downtown Date Night

Tonight we had an official date, it has been way too long! We went out to dinner downtown at McCormick and Schmicks; it was amazingly good! Then we walked to Lucas Oil Stadium and watched the HSE/Avon football game. We didn't recognize anyone we knew and the students looked SOOO young it was crazy! We walked around the stadium, it was huge and very nice! We thought this might be one of our few chances in the near future to see it! Then we walked back to Monument Circle and then were on our way home. My hands and feet were very swollen from all the extra walking, but it was worth it!

Double Date Night

We went to dinner with Matt and Janelle then went cosmic bowling. It was a really fun time!! Janelle had her lowest score ever her first round, then beat Matt in the second round....so we won't discuss Matt's score! Tessa had fun too, she was moving around and around!

Pool Party

Katie invited everyone to swim at her parent's house today. All of us work together and have formed a great friendship that goes beyond work. Fortunately a few of them have ventured into the parenting world before me and have been a great resource for advice! Thanks girls!!!

28 weeks and growing

Today was our 28 weeks doctor's visit. Tessa checked out just fine as usual. Her heart rate was 140-150's and she measured right on track. The next thing on our to do list is choose a pediatrician for her, so if you have any suggestions of a Fishers pediatrician let us know.
I had my sugar test, so I drank my glucola and had some blood drawn. I guess that they will just call me if they find something with my blood work. I have gained weight and officially broken the pre-pregnancy weight! Yea!! We will go back in 3 weeks and then the appointments will just gradually get closer and closer together until she arrives!
